...Deep, however, knew precisely what they had to do: burst in on a scantily-clad female (who may or may not be having sex but is certainly flaunting her assets), shove her violently to the ground (tearing off what little clothing she has, along with a fair amount of flesh), and rape her (brutally and painfully). A scientist in the film explains that the humanoids must procreate rapidly or face extinction--or some such gobbledegook--but that's all irrelevant. What we have here is a fantasia on rape...

...scalpel. Then we cut the camera and I spent about 20 minutes rigging her forehead with mortician's wax. The scalpel was dull enough so as not to actually cut her, but was sharp enough to cut through the wax and give the illusion of slicing her flesh. Again the blood came out of the scalpel and shot into the groove being created. We cut the camera once more.

...authors explain why Muslims eschew pork (pigs would have been an ecological disaster in the Middle East) and why chicken soup -so-called Jewish penicillin-really does help to cure a cold (it comforts nasal passages). They show why Chinese drink no milk, discuss the Aztec hunger for human flesh (people who ate people were the victims of protein deficiency) and explain why Africa's Bemba society would collapse into chaos without beer (a major source of nourishment as well as a ceremonial beverage). Consuming Passions may not make consumers appreciate the Chinese taste for sea slugs...

...Queen Guenevere (Christine Ebersole) love King Arthur (Burton) for the sweet reasonableness with which he wishes to foster justice and peace? Does a surge of passion draw her to Lancelot (Richard Muenz), even though he is a charmless prig? Ebersole's Guenevere is closer to marble than to flesh, and, in any event, we never do learn what these three people feel for each other...
